Clean sheets

3.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 13 clean sheets across 34 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 24) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 65.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Defensive volume. 3.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 35.4 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~13), then tapers with age. At 28, James-Wildin sits on 7.9, past its peak and easing. The blue line is James-Wildin's projected Rating — 35.4 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
